His real html5 boilerplate isn't very useful. it's basically doctype html5 and css reset. It seems to me he's complaining that http://html5boilerplate.com/ http://html5boilerplate.com/ doesn't have a better builder UI.
Maybe his blog post is old? checkout http://initializr.com/ http://initializr.com/
- tlrobinson 16y agoI'm inclined to agree with this: "A boilerplate should be added to, not subtracted from". I don't use "the" HTML5 boilerplate for that reason. At best I'll fork it, subtract all the extra crap, and use my fork.
- JonnieCache 16y agoIt is useful when you're just knocking something quick together as an experiment and you have no intention of ever deploying it in any serious way. The full boilerplate is overkill and actually creates more work for you in that scenario.
- paulirish 16y agoInitializr was integrated into H5BP and launched last week. :) See the Boilerplate Custom button on http://h5bp.com http://h5bp.com
- DanielRibeiro 16y agoIt seems the biggest problem is that the boilerplate seems to act more like a framework instead of just a library. If that's the case, then using this with other frameworks like Sproutcore and Cappuccino can prove quite daunting...
- shichuan 16y agoone of the thing about h5bp/mbp is that it gets your project off the ground quickly and right-footed if you are using other frameworks and feel hard to implement everything in, this can at least be used as reference or inspiration.
